The Turkey Problem:

If a family and a half (1 ½ family) can eat a turkey and a half (1 ½ turkey) in a day and a half (1 ½ day),

how many families can eat six turkeys in six days…

Ziggy did the funniest thing earlier.. I was sitting on my boyfriend's lap in the computer chair while Ziggy was perched on the edge of the bed, staring at us.. After about thirty seconds, he starts slightly moaning under his breath.. Then it escalates to whining at a moderate volume.. On to loud "HEYYYYYYYYYY" squeals, accompanied by paw slamming on the bedside.. So, at this point, I get…

I have a few new updates on trials to write about. Things have been very busy lately-- just got married, just moved, general life still happening-- leaving no time for updates... until now!

In October, just three days before getting married, Baxter AND Ziggy (my little boy is all grown up!) entered an agility trial in the suburbs of Chicago. I entered both of them into everything. I may have even gotten a few videos the first day, one of which being Ziggy's very first trial…

Star had her litter on Friday and it was 5 boys, 1 girl, and we’re getting a little boy puppy!!!  We are finalizing puppy names (shhhhh!!! it's a seekrit!) and now we know we're going for a boy puppy name!!!

HOORAY!!!

This is Star:

This is the sire, Andrew:

I went to the annual Dixon Corgi Faire.I think this is the third time I have gone with Chloe.  I have never seen so many Corgis!  I entered Chloe is the Corgi Bowling contest, 3 plastic cups with treats underneath, the object of the game is to knock over cup and get treats.  She got third place in her group.  We will practice for next year.  I did enjoy talking to other Corgi people.  What was interesting is that the Corgis in grass area all decided to chase other non Corgi breed like a…

I need some advice... My husband and I brought Lola to my parents house for the weekend to visit. They have a Tibetan Terrier (about the same size as a Corgi, just a bit taller) female that is 12 years old and very friendly named Madison. We were trying to figure out how to introduce the two without any issues. Lola's been so calm with other dogs at the park and with humans I didn't think there would be an issue... I was really wrong.

Any time Madison gets within 5 feet of…

I saw an ad today on the Northern Michigan Craigslist where someone is giving away an 8 year old tri-color female Pembroke corgi.  The ad said she was healthy and active and was an outside dog that would be good on a farm.  I just wanted to let everyone know in case someone is looking to add a corgi to their family!

HOLY HONKIN' COW!

It's been NINE months since Ziggy came to live with us today :) Only three months until it's been a year... This has to be the first time I've noticed how fast time flies instead of thinking about how long it takes a year to go by. Anyhoo, we're…

I found this special made by National Geographic about how the dog came to be what they are today. There is even a section on the Pembroke Welsh Corgi :D

Both the corgi's are really hesitant to go into the water and then finally the tri corgi gets impatient and gives a little nudge to the other corgi, lol.

Does anyone have a Pinterest Account with a Corgi Board I can follow ? 

Great Corgi Photos

Gizmo the Service Dog

This dog is adorable.  Watch him tug with all his might to close a door after his owner goes outside.  At the grocery store he seems to just pick up stuff his owner either drops or knocks off shelves !  It's hilarious.

Since Gromit turned three this year and that's over 18 in dog years I registered him to vote.  He was keen to vote for AZ. House of Representatives member Frank Pratt who is a corgi owner.  At the polling station they questioned whether Gromit should be allowed to vote and I said "He was born here so he's a citizen…

I LOVE my little girl and would NOT trade her for anything.

But I sometimes got the same question "Is she pure?" from the people who knows a little bit about corgis or from some corgi owner. I don't think there is anything wrong with my girl. I know she is pure and she behaves totally in Corgi-Style, but we have to admit that each dog looks different. Those beautiful ones which are considered close to the standard would participate in the dog shows. Those ones ain't we still…

Took Ziggy out for his morning potty, and woohoo, snow!

"Do what? Look…

I'm on a couple other forums around the 'net and I don't know what it is in the air right now, but a LOT of people (mostly in the U.S.) are wanting to breed their bitch for X or Y reason. So, since I plan on C+P-ing this everywhere I encounter such an idea, I want to post it here, too, just to cover as much ground as I can.

So you want to breed your female. You know what to expect if everything goes right.…
